wore the embarrassing suit to the graduation functions and never wore it again. But you left out the most important part: did it fit?

Re: [MBZ] Blue W123 carpet set - really?
The shade of blue reminds me: In early spring of '52, when I was 17, I was nearing high school graduation, and of course, wanted to attend the associated functions. The fashion for boys attending such functions at that time was a dark blue suit. I had not a proper suit since I was 10, and Mom and Dad could not afford to buy one for me. I had been working part-time in a grocery store for a couple of years, so I was making a little bit of money, but I didn't have enough to buy a suit. About this time a traveling salesman came along selling suits made-to-order. Such a suit would cost me $50 paid in five ten-dollar payments. I agreed to the plan, picked out the material and color from the salesman's swatches, and he took my measurements and had the suit tailored. I made the appropriate payments, and the suit arrived a day or two before the first graduation function. I got a quite surprise when I opened the package to find a suit in THAT shade of blue - a BRIGHT, royal blue! It was the material and color I had picked via the small swatches, and I was terribly disappointed, but I never said a word about it to anybody - just wore the embarrassing suit to the graduation functions and never wore it again.
